IL Representatives Want Child Sex Offenders Living Closer To Schools (Springfield, IL) – Two Illinois State Representatives, Camille Y. Lilly and Kelly M. Cassidy, sponsored House Bill 3913, which would permit child sex offenders to live as close as 250 feet from a school or playground – currently they must stay at least 500 feet away.

Language from the Synopsis:

“Synopsis As Introduced:
Amends the Unified Code of Corrections. Provides that it is unlawful for a child sex offender with the duty to register to knowingly reside within 250 feet (rather than 500 feet) of a school building, playground, the real property comprising any school that persons under the age of 18 attend, or other specified child care facilities. Provides further requirements concerning a child sex offender’s address of registration. Amends the Sex Offender Registration Act. Removes the weekly reporting requirement for persons who lack a fixed residence (currently, both weekly and quarterly or annual reporting are required). Provides that if a person lacks a fixed residence, he or she shall not have to provide documentation of registering address. Makes conforming changes.”

  1. House bill 3913 To the people in the 78th & 14th districts I strongly urge you to vote these two state reps out the next election. What do they have gain from a bill like this ? These state reps are a clear and present danger to the safety of the state. This is about as low and left that I’ve seen the democratic party turn . These two state reps need to resign immediately. Both of them need a phychiatric evaluation done . Why do they need sex offenders to live closer ? So the victims have to relive being victims all over again. Please vote them out .
